No one is holding this down. I am long and was pumping the company as much as anyone but ALPP has made moves that resemble a failing desperate company, after I thought things were turning around and looking so good for ALPP. I do not believe this to be the case for ALPP but there was no reason to seek out and ink a funding deal that has proven to be death spirals for other companies historically. I was just in a stock with an LPC like ATM tap. You realize LPC takes on no risk? As soon as ALPP tells them to buy shares, LPC sells them directly back into the market. Now we are fighting dilution on top of everything else. I want ALPP to become what it could be as much and badly as anybody but investors know what these kinds of deals are and what it does to a stock. They are last chance efforts to make payments, pay overhead, pay debt, and then, try to turn the company around before they are delisted or bankrupt but usually end up in renewing another and another ATM tap lending deal going into a death spiral and mass diluting the shares. This could definitely be a different outcome with ALPP, seeing their growth and revenues, but I do not like that they signed a deal like this and I’m sure many other investors don’t either. Especially since ALPP is carrying debt and just announced, making it clear they are thinking about, an R/S. These are 3 factors, that if they are done together, they are heavily weighted by investors and are hurting us badly on ALPP’s stock.
